WebsiteBuilder: How to Add Google Analytics Code

Google Analytics is one of the most commonly used digital analytics software online. It provides an analysis of visitors to your website. This can help you strategize your online marketing for your business.


NOTE: We offer two different versions of WebsiteBuilder. Our original implementation is the Legacy WebsiteBuilder Editor, while WebsiteBuilder Express Editor is the newest interface commonly found in the Foundation dashboard. It is not possible to upgrade a Legacy WebsiteBuilder site to the Express Editor. The site will need to be recreated with the
Express Editor. All new WebsiteBuilder installations will be the Express Editor.
 

Follow the instructions that match your WebsiteBuilder version.
